 | Allied Artists upheld an Ohio statute prohibiting the practices of âblind sellingâ and âblind bidding,â which involve the licensing of a motion picture without affording an exhibitor the opportunity to view the film. |
 | In Allied Artists, the distributors attacked the statute on federal constitutional grounds, claiming that the law violated the First Amendment and placed an undue burden on interstate commerce in violation of the commerce clause. |
